• 1 •
1.12To reduce the risk of a battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review the cautionary markings on these products and on the engine.
2.PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
2.1 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.
2.2Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.
2.3Be extra cautious, to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or other electrical part that may cause an explosion.
2.4Do not permit the internal battery of the Instant Power™ to freeze. Never charge a frozen battery.
2.5To prevent sparking, NEVER allow clips to touch together or contact the same piece of metal.
2.6Consider having someone nearby to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
2.7Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts your skin, clothing or eyes.
2.8Wear complete eye and body protection, including safety goggles and protective clothing. Avoid touching your eyes while working near the battery.
2.9If battery acid contacts your skin or clothing, immediately wash the area with soap and water. If acid enters your eye, immediately flood the eye with cold running water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention right away.
2.10If battery acid is accidentally swallowed, drink milk, the whites of eggs or water. DO NOT induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately.
3.Preparing to use the Instant Power™
RISK OF CONTACT WITH BATTERY ACID. BATTERY ACID
IS A HIGHLY CORROSIVE SULFURIC ACID.
3.1Be sure the area around the battery is well ventilated while the jump starter is being used.
3.2Clean the battery terminals before using the jump starter. During cleaning, keep airborne corrosion from coming into
contact with your eyes, nose and mouth. Use baking soda and water to neutralize the battery acid and help eliminate airborne corrosion. Do not touch your eyes, nose or mouth.
3.3Add distilled water to each cell until the battery acid reaches the level specified by the battery manufacturer. Do not overfill. For a battery without removable cell caps, such as valve regulated lead acid batteries (VRLA), carefully follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
3.4Read, understand and follow all instructions for the Instant Power™, battery, vehicle and any equipment used near the battery and Instant Power™. Study all of the vehicle and battery manufacturer’s specific precautions to be followed while jump starting.
3.5Determine the voltage of the battery by referring to the vehicle owner’s manual and make sure that the output voltage of the jump starter is correct.
3.6Make sure that the Instant Power™ cable clips make tight connections.
•2 •
4.Instant power™ LOCATION
RISK OF EXPLOSION AND CONTACT WITH BATTERY ACID.
4.1 Locate the Instant Power™ as far away from the battery as the DC cables permit.
4.2 Never place the Instant Power™ directly above the battery being jumped; gases
from the battery will corrode and damage the Instant Power™.
4.3Do not operate the Instant Power™ in a closed-in area or restrict the ventilation in any way.

6.Charging the internal battery of the Instant Power™
Important: charge immediately after purchase, after each use and every 30 days to keep the instant power™ INTERNAL BATTERY FULLY CHARGED.
6.1LED Indicators
To check the internal battery’s status, press the Battery Status button on the front of the Instant Power™.
The LED lights will indicate the charge level as follows:
•A red LED indicates a 50% or less charge, and you should immediately recharge the Instant Power™.
•A yellow LED indicates a 50 to 75% charge. The Instant Power™ may be used, but should be recharged as soon as possible.
•A green LED indicates the internal battery is fully charged.
NOTE: The internal battery’s percent of charge is most accurate when the Instant Power™ has been disconnected from all devices and charging sources for a few hours.
6.2Charging the Internal Battery using the Built-In Charger
1.To charge, flip the AC connector on the back of the Instant Power™ up and plug an 18 gauge (AWG) (0.82 mm2) or larger extension cord onto it. (Extension cord not included; must be purchased separately.)
2.Plug the other end of the extension cord into a 120V AC electrical wall outlet.
3.The RED LED will light indicating charging.
4.The GREEN LED will light when the battery has reached full charge. This could take up to 72 hours, due to the age and condition of the battery. The charger will automatically go into maintain mode and maintain the battery at full charge without damaging it.
5.Charge the Instant Power™ as soon as possible after each use.
Do not use the Instant Power™ while charging the internal battery.
You may also charge the internal battery while driving, using a male-to-male charger cable (p/n 94500109 – not included). Insert one end of the charger cable into the 12V DC power outlet and the other end into the vehicle’s accessory outlet (lighter socket).
Completely disconnect the charger cable when the engine is not running.
The RED LED and the GREEN LED do not indicate charging status during this method of charging. Using this method to charge the battery overrides the maintain mode and the battery can be overcharged. Monitor the progress of the battery, and when it reaches a full (100%) charge, disconnect the charger. Do not charge it for more than four hours and do not leave the battery unattended or it could explode, causing property damage or personal injury.
7.OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
7.1Jump Starting a Vehicle Engine
A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
Do not use the Instant Power™ while charging the internal battery.
1.Turn the vehicle’s ignition OFF before making cable connections.
2.Position the DC cables to reduce the risk of damage by the hood, door and moving or hot engine parts. NOTE: If it is necessary to close the hood during the jump starting process, ensure that the hood does not touch the metal part of the battery clips or cut the insulation of the cables.
3.Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that can cause injury.
4.Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
•4 •
5.Determine which post of the battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If the negative post is grounded to the chassis (as in most vehicles), see step 6. If the positive post is grounded to the chassis, see step 7.
6.For a negative-grounded vehicle, connect the POSITIVE (RED) clip from the jump starter to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded post of the battery. Connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the clip to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
7.For a positive-grounded vehicle, connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from the jump starter to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) ungrounded post of the battery. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) clip to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery.
Do not connect the clip to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
RISK OF EXPLOSION.
Models XJS5, XP500, XJS7C and XP750C: If you have connected the clips backward, an audio alarm will sound. DO NOT turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. This could cause serious damage to the Instant Power™ or the vehicle. Reverse the connections and the audio alarm will stop.
8. Turn ON the Jump Start ON/OFF switch. Crank the engine. If the engine does not start within 5-8 seconds, stop cranking and wait at least 1 minute before attempting to start the vehicle again. (This permits the battery to cool down.)
9.After the engine starts, make sure to turn OFF the Jump Start switch.
Then, disconnect the black clip (-) and then the red clip (+), in that order.
10.Recharge the Instant Power™ as soon as possible after use.
RISK OF EXPLOSION.
To prevent sparking, NEVER allow the clips to touch together or to contact the same piece of metal. Never attempt to jump start a frozen battery.
7.2Powering a 12V DC Device:
The Instant Power™ is a power source for all 12V DC accessories that are equipped with a 12V accessory plug. Use it for power outages and fishing or camping trips.
Make sure the device to be powered is OFF before inserting the 12V DC accessory plug into the 12V DC accessory outlet.
1.Ensure the battery clips are securely clipped on the storage holders.
2.Open the protective cover of the DC power outlet on the front of the Instant Power™.
3.Plug the 12V DC device into the DC power outlet, and turn the 12V DC device on
(if required).
4.If the 12V DC device draws more than 15A or has a short circuit, the internal circuit breaker of the Instant Power™ will trip and disconnect the power to the device. Disconnect the 12V DC device. The breaker will automatically reset after an overload occurs.
The DC power outlet is wired directly to the internal battery. Extended operation of a 12V DC device may result in excessive battery drain. Recharge immediately after unplugging the 12V DC device.
7.3Using the USB Port (Models XJS5, XP500, XJS7C and XP750C)
The USB port provides up to 500mA at 5V DC.
